In training and in life, failure is often just the next step toward getting stronger and moving forward.

01/21/2026

We often think change requires big motivation and big effort.

But most goals don’t fail because we’re lazy.
They fail because the goal feels overwhelming.

So instead of asking,
“How do I do this perfectly?”
try asking,
“What is the smallest version of this I can do today?”

Not an hour workout.
Five minutes.

Not a full diet reset.
One healthier choice.

• It lowers resistance
• It builds consistency
• It keeps you moving forward on hard days
• It creates momentum instead of pressure

Small actions don’t stay small.

They stack.
They build confidence.
They keep the habit alive.

Progress isn’t made through heroic effort.
It’s made through doable effort.

So here’s your question:

What is one goal you’ve been avoiding…
and what is the smallest step you could take today?

Small is not weak.
Small is how change actually happens.

Best advice:

Just take one step. Thinking about the whole picture can be overwhelming. Instead, focus on just the very first step.

Instead of thinking about the hour long workout, focus on just putting on the workout clothes.
Worried about getting through a fitness class? Focus on just walking through the door.
Not sure you’re going to be able to walk an entire mile? Just get to the mailbox.

Break it down to just one action. Taking that first step almost always gets you to the next one, and the one after that.

And if it doesn’t? That’s ok too. But at least you moved in the right direction.

You got this!

Find the beauty in your world.

Find one thing today that makes you smile. One thing that makes your heart a little lighter. Linger with it a moment, then tuck it away for when you need a little light in the darkness.

How do you take care of yourself when you’re just trying to get through the day?

We focus quite a bit on keeping our bodies strong but our minds need just as much attention.

Learning something new, playing games, creative hobbies, or reading. Our brains need the challenge to continue to develop and stay sharp.

Reading is my favorite without a doubt. (In fact, I just finished The Poisonwood Bible and it was excellent. Highly recommend.)

So, what is your favorite way to stay mentally strong?

What will you do today to move forward in your wellness journey? Doesn’t have to be big. You don’t have to start training for a marathon or completely overhaul your diet. Just one small step that you can do today.

What will it be?
